Andris Nelsons's conducts the BSO in Lady Macbeth of Mtsensk, the most ambitious endeavor in their multi-year survey of the works of Dmitri Shostakovich. Based on Nikolai Leskov’s 1865 novella by the same name, the opera tells the powerful story of Katarina Ismailova, an oppressed, ambitious, and ultimately murderous wife of a provincial merchant.
